.SH NAME
intrd \- interrupt distribution daemon
.SH SYNOPSIS
.LP
.nf
\fB/usr/lib/intrd\fR
.fi

.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBintrd\fR daemon is started at boot time to monitor the assignments
between interrupts and \fBCPU\fRs. If \fBintrd\fR decides that the current
assignments are imbalanced and harmful to system performance, it will generate
and implement new assignments.
.sp
.LP
Any notifications will be delivered via \fBsyslogd\fR(8).
.sp
.LP
Because \fBintrd\fR dynamically monitors a system  for optimal performance, it
consumes a small amount of CPU  time, even on an otherwise idle system. This
behavior is normal.
